Nona.
Sunny is right, when Thomas has sizures he acts like he’s in pain, But the Dr’s tell me they don’t feel any thing.
Muis was so much like my Zoie when it comes to me. Her Kisses were the first thing I noticed when she got sick the first time.I told the vet she doesn’t give any kisses, he just looked at me & then said (Gee’s Jack maybe she doesn’t feel up to it right now) We had to laugh.
Muis will be missed for sure. Your memorie’s of her will in time made you smile.
Hug to you & the kid’s

Many thanks, Sunny – it does help to be able to speak about one’s pain to other ferret owners because they know exactly what you’re going through. I do hope your vet is right and that Muis didn’t know what was going on at the end. She really did seem like she was fighting to the end and I wonder if the screams were her raging at the thought of having to leave permanently. Sounds ridiculous, doesn’t it, but it was nothing like I’ve ever experienced before.

Please give your trio a special hug from me and my trio

Thank you so much, Dada – I really appreciate your very kind words. It does make it easier to think that Muis is playing with all my other ferrets now and it’ll be so much fun to meet up with them all again one day!

Please give Fritzy & Fred a very special hug from all of us here

Oh, I am so sorry, Nona; my Yew passed away after a lengthy coma, but it was a quiet, easy death.

Sometimes, though, they have seizures right before passing away, while the body is stopping its processes. My vets said that it’s an automated thing, and when they’re comatose or catatonic they don’t really register it as pain, like we do when we see our pets go through it.

You and your family have my best wishes and all the hugs in the world. Muis was a beautiful girl.

but she knew she was loved and you know she loved you..and she is now free from the pain playing and war-dancing with her friends on the Rainbow Bridge..
thousand kisses for Muis there on the Bridge and big warm hug to you and Phillip too..

Thank you so much, Tracy. Only another pet lover would know how I feel at the moment.

I think this is the part of pet ownership which I absolutely HATE. Sometimes I wonder why I keep on having more pets but they give me so much pleasure for 99% of the time that I am prepared to swallow the 1% which is horrible.

Loved your comment about the green fields and yes, NO in-laws allowed! LOL!!! You made me smile – first time in 2 days – thank you

Oh Nona, so sorry. After what we went through with Binx on friday I know exactly how you feel. I think we always feel there was something we shouldn’t/should have done but we can only call it as we see it and unfortunately our little babies can’t tell us……….wish they could. Muis knew you were doing your best for her and you will see her again someday, nice thought isn’t it to be lying in a green field flat on your back with numerous long gone pets going ballistic, lets hope there’s no in-laws.
